Who wants it? It's not even popular anymore.

>>16655249
Me. It's a shame SEGA has a (pretty good) PV and probably a chart, but can't use it because of licensing problems.

Same thing with Kagamine Hachi Hachi, but even worse because it WAS in Arcade and got removed.

Is this going to be another thread full of shitty roleplay?

>>16655306

I suppose this is not as easy with a DS4?

Glitch. I know it exists, but given the medium, I feel like it should still be way more prevalent, surely.

Chiptune as well, to a lesser extent, for the same reason.

>>16656414

Miku is a cute bunk bunny.

I need advice from those who have gone to Japan before. I'm going for a few days for business and then I get a day off to do whatever I want. Obviously, my plan is dump whatever money I have left in akihabara for more Miku merch. My question is, will all stores charge me tax even if I show my passport? I found this website saying that purchases over 5,000 yen with valid passport means no tax but I just want to make sure.

I can't tell because I'm prem.

>>16660837
I started checking 7-8 hours ago up until now (since it corresponds to night-time in Japan) and the message was there all the time, so yeah it's real.

anyone getting, or already have this album?

>>16660796
>>16660796
Try to do it when it's low traffic hours in Japan. It usually works fine for me between 2 am and midday (in Japan time zone).

So, many people is showing playthroughs on Youtube but not so many with an Arcade Layout, so I thought why not? Maybe someone is interested in how the charts work on these layouts.

Shame I'm a scrub and can't perfect anything above 7 stars yet, but I still managed to do these:

>>16668509
at this point, it seems like never

>>16669112
No, they aren't. Producers like niki and UtataP made they well known. You must be really new to not know about them.

>>16669261
>well known
Laughable. They're well known compared to other wholoids, I suppose.

>>16669295
They are well known because anyone who is into vocaloid for a while has heard of them. Wholoids are vocaloids which very few people heard of or remember, like Cul, Rana and Chika.

>>16669470
I guess we have a different definition for what a "Wholoid" is.

>>16669470
>I've heard of them, that makes them well known

>>16669637
>I haven't heard of them, that makes them wholoids

>>16669731
Them being wholoids makes them wholoids. That they are irrelevant and have no presence in the scene or community makes them wholoids.

>>16669763
>That they are irrelevant and have no presence in the scene or community makes them wholoids.
That's exactly why Lily and Mayu aren't wholoids.

>>16669999
It would be hard for them to be less relevant. They would have to not exist.

>>16670029
It may seems so to you because you got into vocaloid after it started dying. But back in the glorious days they were relevant. Of course that now that vocaloid itself is barely relevant, the less popular vocaloids receive few attention.

alright, where would you draw the big Who-line?

>>16670069
Below Yukari. My levels of normalfag are pretty high.

>>16670058
>It may seems so to you because you got into vocaloid after it started dying.
Nice assumption. You can't defend your argument so you have to project personalities onto your opponent so you can attack that instead. I never said I was unfamiliar with them, I just said they are irrelevant, which they are, since they have almost no presence in the community.
>back in the glorious days
Mayu came out in like 2013, the "glorious days" were already long gone by then.
Now you've outed yourself as the actual newfag

>>16669261
>>16669470
You're wasting your time, most people within this general are pure secondary cancers. Just come here for the cute pictures.

>>16670069
There's a very broad line under Yukari

>>16670109
>the "glorious days" were already long gone by then.
I'd argue things were fine till around 2014, but I guess it's subjective.

>>16669999
>That's exactly why Lily and Mayu aren't wholoids
So what has been going on for them lately? Any big hits, updates, events for them?

>>16670069

>people that disagree with me are autistic even though I have no way to support my argument

>>16670179
Man you're really hopeless it's sad.

>>16670183
There it is again. You don't have a leg to stand on, all you can do is criticize other people who disagree with you without refuting their points or provide any opposing facts. That's what's really hopeless. You can call names all you want, it won't make those wholoids any less irrelevant.

never imagined I'd see the day of downloading from Nico at decent speeds

>>16670109
>You can't defend your argument so you have to project personalities onto your opponent so you can attack that instead.
For starter, my assumption was not about your personality. Besides, read my posts carefully. I do defended my arguments; my assumption was about why you didn't understand my points. If you aren't new, I can only assume you are either a casual or dumb.
>Mayu came out in like 2013, the "glorious days" were already long gone by then.
I would say the glorius days ended by late 2014 or early 2015.

>>16670119
I'm starting to understand why some people here get so mad about the so called secondaries.

>>16670140
>So what has been going on for them lately? Any big hits, updates, events for them?
Untill a few years ago, yes. See >>16670058

>>16670199
What don't you understand by "open thread"? You're acting exactly as I described here, lashing out on a passerby because your damaged ego won't let you do otherwise.

I can't be fucking arsed to come arguing about pointless shits like whether some shitty mentally anon thinks X or Y are wholoids or not, holy fuck you're pathetic.

>>16670069
>>16670176
Is it weighted by time? How come Flower is so low ranked?

>>16670217
>I would say the glorius days ended by late 2014 or early 2015.
Yeah, a newfag would think that.

>>16670220
>I'm totally not a samefag guys, look I greentexted ">open thread" that means I'm a different person I just happen to instantly agree with this other guy and rushed to his defense at a convenient but completely coincidental time haha
Hopeless.

>>16670217
>Untill a few years ago
So nothing recently? Then why does it surprise you people say they're irrelevant?

I love those times and songs as much as the other nostalgiafags, but if they don't have a presence "now"...

>>16670249
First one I assume is a total uploads featured in he WVR(since 2007 I guess)
Second one is per 10 weeks.

>>16670253
2008 here, and I agree with end of 2014.

>>16670253
>Yeah, a newfag would think that.
Now you're the one attacking me instead of arguing. Also, by 2014 the scene was very different from 2007-2010, but it was still popular, that's why consider 2014 as part of the glorious days.

>>I'm totally not a samefag guys, look I greentexted ">open thread" that means I'm a different person I just happen to instantly agree with this other guy and rushed to his defense at a convenient but completely coincidental time haha
For clarify, I'm the guy arguing that Lily and Mayu are not wholoids.
>>16670162 >>16670183 and >>16670220 are not me.

>>16670278
I agree that they aren't relevant today. That's why I said only someone new to vocaloid would call them wholoids, because they were relevant untill a few years ago, and oldfags are well aware of them.

>>16670311

Since NNDD isn't updated anymore I had to resort to other solutions.
Tried JDownloader and even managed to set it up, but it doesn't work right on new videos
Someone suggested "Downthemall!", and I've been using it since. Not as elegant, but it does the job well.
(no, it doesn't convert as far as I know)

There we go. Thanks, comrade!

Whose actually played a Miku arcade machine here.

>>16672136
I went to one once but there were other people standing around and playing IIDX and D8 and stuff and I was way too embarrassed to actually play so I just looked at the machine for a little bit and left.
I don't know if that counts or not.

>>16672163
Was the machine actually close to you?

Let me rephrase the question. Is the machine within driving distance to you or were you traveling (though Japan or something) and stumbled onto one?

>>16672136
I have. The vita did not prepare me properly. I had to have my sister help to even have a chance of finishing a song.

>>16672174
I used to live near Dallas and they have two arcades there. That each have a cabinet. There's only like 6 or 7 authentic cabinets in the US that are connected to Diva Net

>>16672201
>>16672208
Lucky. I wish one was near me. Granted, I would suck but it would be fun to at least mess around with it.

>>16672208
Closest one to me is in Pennsylvania which isn't all that close. That would require a special trip which I would never do without good reason. A shame there isn't one closer.

http://miku.sega.jp/arcade/tw/location/location_usa.html

I'm also curious as to why these machines cabinets are so expensive. Perhaps it's because they are custom built and aren't mass produced.

https://www.arcade-game-sales.com/arcade-machines/video-games/hatsune-miku-porject-diva-arcade-machine/10727-2.html

>>16672275
They're appropriately priced. I wanted to buy one but then FT got announced so I figured that was good enough and I don't have to mess around with Japanese servers and ID cards and shit.

>>16671818
>~10k videos in the weekly rankings

>>16672275
>4000 €
That is the old Arcade version, right? I think Future Tone Arcade costs around 15000 €

>>16672331
I heard SEGA won't sell you a cabinet if you are not a business, even if you have the money.

>>16673110
>That is the old Arcade version, right?
I believe it is. Unfortunately, I couldn't find details on the number of FT cabinets in the US or the price of a cabinet. Not that I'd be able to buy one but it's an interesting fun fact.

>>16672136
I played future tone on an arcade machine in akihabara right in a sega arcade. It was $1 a play and the library of songs had me drooling at the time. The tech in those machines is pretty incredible.

>>16675226
>in a sega arcade
That alone sounds really fun.

Alright I ripped the album using exact audio copy
I never used exact audio copy before but I listened to this once and it sounded good enough

I also never used mp3 tag before so the tags might be slightly off if I somehow fucked up majorly

let me know if the rip sounds like shit or something, or if I fucked up something else really badly, and if so, I'll try to rip it again w/ different settings or something.. I dunno!!

but here you go: https://mega.nz/#!Ag1TALaJ!Jn1FK8mu2nvNM_2brJ9DcwvgzaG74NLbifWjlulYT6w

the only thing I ask is that you don't upload it to mikudb or anywhere else

I suppose this is more of a music question in general, but what genre would one consider something like Kaito's "Rosary Pale"? I love that kind of fast paced piano and whatnot - reminds me of 2hu arranges as well.

Similarly, where can I find more of it - especially in terms of vocaloid music?

>>16677018

Thanks. Do you have a better pic of the cover?

>>16677678
not at the moment, but I could scan the cover if you REALLY REALLY need it
it's just that I'm kinda lazy

>>16677690

I like them Append but scan it only of you feel like it. Ir -is- a nice cover after all.

>>16677712
well I guess it's not too big of a deal, I'll try to scan it tomorrow
and if it's not a huge hassle I'll try to scan the back cover and the inside art as well

but I won't scan the inside of the booklet however, as it's just song names + lyrics

did you listen to the album btw? thoughts on the rip quality and stuff?

Im very interested. Please share anon.

>>16678062
Just ordered it. Expected date if arrival is Jan 2018.

All this talk about DLC, I thought the new update was coming out, but turns out it's just secondaries getting their trickle down.

Never felt like wanting to play a Vocaloid plataformer game a la Mario 64/Banjo-Kazooie but with sound mechanics somehow integrated in it?

>>16681351
I'd make a game like that but I have no idea how to make it interesting.

I'd also like to make a self-insert game with Miku with some short heartwarming love story like Miku VN but with some actual gameplay. But I have no idea how to make it not look like some autistic fanfic(which it would be anyway). Maybe some QTE based gameplay with some VN/dating-sim like dialogue choices, I dunno.

>>16682332
>self-insert game with Miku
33 years old male here, I can't be the only one interested in a self-insert game AS Miku

Finally, the DLC is up in Europe

Why is this module so damn fluffy and cute?

Today's the day!

Thank you, Miku!

I was thinking about grabbing this too, but there's something about the face that seems a bit wonky. Am I crazy?

When is Miku's 10th birthday?

>>16686222
August 31st.

Can somebody help me identify this Miku song?

Thanks you for going the extra mile.

Aww, no fun allowed...

>>16687022
Do they seriously think someone would use Miku for political gain? I actually want to see that happen.

>>16687052
Didn't the Democratic Party of Japan tried to use Miku once? They couldn't use her image but they used her voicebank without mentioning her anyways.

>>16687052

>>16687052
I don't want to see that happen. Because I know I'd follow her to the end of the world.

the original mikuture app came out a number of years ago. they apparently took it down because people were using it to make... less than appropriate images.

from what i can tell, this rerelease is very similar how i remember the old application. im not sure what they could have possibly down to prevent people from sexualizing the miku.

What did they mean by this?

>>16691293
YES! MIKU FINALLY DIED!

>>16691293
I told you guys Miku is dying.

I want secondary VOCALOIDs to go. Yes, Yukari, I know this >>16691589 is you.

>>16687869
that midsection looks slightly malnourished. i hope miku is healthy.

>>16691794
I told it before, Miku should stop eating so many vegetables and get more bacon wrapped hot dogs

>>16691794
That midsection looks poorly drawn because wokada is not a very good artist, is the problem.

>>16691848
she should have a good steak instead, hot dogs and bacon are full of nitrates which are bad for Miku

>>16691984
You can argue that you don't like his drawings and that's fine, but objectively he has good talent for anatomy and that makes him a good artist. If you don't know, that's how a female with the height and weight of Miku is supposed to look in reality, when you take off the idealisation of anime art.

>>16692037
What happened to you, Miku?

>>16692053
>objectively he has good talent for anatomy
https://chan.sankakucomplex.com/post/show/4033787
Perfect anatomy.

>>16692176
Nice cherry picking but deliberately drawing a massive butt in one picture does not negate my claim

>>16691763
Sorry to disappoint, but you got the wrong person.

You must be blind to think that anatomy in >>16687869 is even remotely okay. Just look at her right arm, for fuck's sake.

Admit that his atrocious art panders to your degenerate taste and stop embarrassing yourself, mediocre fap material isn't worth it.

>>16692440
although I do think his style is fairly decadent, he has a handful of cute non-lewd pics

>>16692440
I don't even have a problem with it being degenerate fap material if it just looked good.

>>16692751
Nah, not even that. I only recall a couple of his pictures that could be considered openly pornographic, rest is just tease and funny and a few neutral like your picture.

But I understand some people find it disrespectful. If it's not for the tease is because he portrays the vocaloids in a gyaru idol sense.

Fuck you, Wokada's anatomy is objectively top tier.

>>16692987
Great argument.

>>16692987
You sure showed them, anon.

>>16693066
delet this

>Not loving every single Miku ever done regardless of cuteness, sexyness or any other parameter
Do you even like Miku?

>>16693105
Just because someone put her image on it, doesn't mean it's what Miku really is.
I bet you also listen to English dubs of Miku songs and collect images from deviant art, it's Miku after all.

>>16693105
Even this Miku?

>>16693105
Miku's image should only be recreated by talented artists with good style. A poor reproduction of her likeness is an insult to her beauty. It would be like playing Dvorak's Symphony No 9 on kazoos, or drawing Michelangelo's The Last Judgement with crayons

>>16693130
>playing Dvorak's Symphony No 9 on kazoos
Honestly, that might be amusing enough to listen to.

>>16693124
>what Miku really is.
One of the best, or worse, things about the Vocaloids is that there is no such thing as canon characteristics. You can't tell what Miku really is nor I can neither.

That said, my Miku is as valid as your Miku.

>>16693153
>One of the best, or worse, things about the Vocaloids is that there is no such thing as canon characteristics. You can't tell what Miku really is nor I can neither.
Untrue. There is official, license art.

>>16693153
Everyone has their own Miku and it doesn't mean you have to appreciate every shit that has Miku drawn on it.

Have some respect to her and yourself.

>>16693125
this pic makes me extremely sad because I still love her

poor Miku

>>16693192
Honestly, me too. I want Miku to be healthy and happy! I don't know why I even saved it in the first place.

>>16693130
>Miku's image should only be recreated by talented artists with good style.
Miku became popular exactly because anyone can portray her the way they feel like. Restraining the way she should be portrayed is nothing but nonsense.

>>16693168
>Have some respect to her
The fact that you don't like some fan art doesn't mean it's disrespectful to Miku.

>>16693906
Even ignoring modern standards for respect, lewd/sexual is officially disrespectful, so that makes it inherently insulting to the fanbase, the characters, and Crypton Future Media themselves. You can like it, but don't think for a second that kind of art isn't massively insulting.

Happy Sato Day!

>>16694213
There is nothing more respectful than appreciating a woman's nude body. It shows you appreciate her for who she is, as God made her; it is the very essence of "her", pure, and undiluted by any artificial accessories or distractions.
You may say "she looks cute in that outfit" or "she looks cute with her hair like that". We say no. We say "she looks cute as she is. As she was. As I want her to be, as a friend"
Ancient Greek and Roman artists and sculptors understood that the nude human form was the most beautiful thing to portray. The fact that so many books still name nude works as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" works of art ever only tells you how important nude illustrations are.

Are you going to really say that you disagree with over 2500 years worth of artists and art historians?

>>16694213
Yes, but the discussion is about "what Miku really is" not specifically about lewd Mikus.

Miku is a slut!
SLUT!

>>16692590
>A non lewd Wokada Miku pic

>>16694264
well, there is a difference between admiring a woman's anatomy and sexually objectifying her. personally, I have a few tasteful nude Miku pics because I just think she looks beautiful in them, but I don't ever save anything lascivious.

>>16694264
It doesn't matter in this case. The line was drawn, and going over it means you are disrespecting it.

>>16694277
True enough. What Miku is within the few established parameters.

>>16694264
>The fact that
sup Piero

>>16694346
Chill out. I don't think it's healthy to be this obsessed about what other people think about fictional characters... also, no one is truly degrading Miku. Wokada is pretty light stuff, considering all the things there are on the Internet. If anything, people is defending their right to like a sexy Miku, nothing more.

>>16694372
And I'm ensuring the integrity of something I like.

>>16694391
By complaining here, on this niche thread? Have you ever searched Hatsune Miku on Pixiv? I'm pretty sure she is the most drawn character ever at this point.

>>16694346
>The line was drawn
>by me, using my own personal worldview and opinions
Yeah no one really cares what you think though

>>16694432
Why do you sound bothered by me being an otaku on the otaku board? Since when is it wrong to defend what you like?

>>16694477
I didn't bring that up out of nowhere. http://piapro.net/intl/en_for_creators.html
The characters are what they are. If your vision of them goes over those very limited bounds, then you're doing no better than praising bad fanfiction.

>>16694500
>I didn't bring that up out of nowhere. http://piapro.net/intl/en_for_creators.html

>it's this autist again
I can never tell if you're actually ACK, or if all autists have the same typing/writing habits, but it's never fun to read it regardless.

>>16694500
Technically, those guidelines only apply to the creative commons license, or, in order to be legally licensed, one must follow these rules guidelines.
Also by your logic, CFM, Piapro, and Sega would all be condemned for making the PJD games, which contains subjects such as killing people by various methods including electrocution and crucifixion, and having unprotected sex and accidentally getting pregnant.

>>16694500
Listen carefully. Miku is great because people took a voicebank and a baseline design for a character that was purposely kept abstract and expanded the concept in an unprecedented world of creativity. We have songs that tells about Miku being a cute tennager confused by love, a robot questioning the meaning of life, a superhero shooting down demons, a girl that plays the tease game, or just happily singing about vegetables because why the fuck not. All them are a lie but all of them are also true, because that openness and abstraction is what VOCALOIDs, and specially Miku, is all about.

Now you are taking a very specific and individualist point of view of what Miku is and blaming other for not having the same point of view, and by negating the abstraction and openness that characterizes Miku's, you are negating her whole essence and spirit. Hell, I think the one being disrespectful to her is YOU.

But well, in reality nothing of this matters because people will keep uploading thousands of interpretations of Miku in Pixiv and NicoNico. Just enjoy Miku as you see her and let others be.

>>16694559
They ride the line.

>>16694564
>We have songs that tells about Miku being a cute tennager confused by love, a robot questioning the meaning of life, a superhero shooting down demons, a girl that plays the tease game, or just happily singing about vegetables because why the fuck not.
Yeah, I know, and that's cool. The problem is when I'm put on trial by some of you because I want to keep a cute character cute. You're an awful group of people, and you're exactly why /jp/ has a bad name.

>>16694597
>They ride the line.
No, they cross it. If you want to impose these strict and unnecessary limitations, then you have to judge everyone equally for it.
NO violent context
NO sexual context
You have to either condemn CFM, Piapro, and Sega for putting panty shots in the game, or admit you have no argument (not that anyone really thought you did in the first place)

>>16694500
>http://piapro.net/intl/en_for_creators.html
>if You Reproduce, Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work either by itself or as part of any Adaptations or Collections, You must not distort, mutilate, modify or take other derogatory action in relation to the Work which would be prejudicial to the Original Author's honor or reputation
So posting a lewd drawing of Miku on Pixiv harms Crypton's reputation?

>>16694597
>The problem is when I'm put on trial by some of you because I want to keep a cute character cute.
>I should be allowed to state my opinions as fact while criticizing and disparaging anyone who disagrees with me without having to face the repercussions of doing so or defend my beliefs.

Reminder that officially Crypton forbids Miku porn, but in reality they don't give a shit because they know that Miku porn actually makes more people get into Miku. It's basically free advertisement.

>>16694631
Sure, I don't like it and I know Sega goes too far because they're Sega. They can't even make Sonic fans happy anymore.

>>16694634
Like most businesses, they're saying they don't want to be known for lewd. Obviously that extends to the characters they own. I respect their decision because I don't look at a cute character and thing.

>>16694659
The percentage of R-18 Miku pictures on pixiv is less than 5%, that shows that most people do respect it a bare minimum. Besides, officially going to pixiv and getting everything deleted would draw a huge amount of unwanted attention to it. Look at the porn "ban" that happened with Overwatch for an example of what they don't want.

i agree with the guy in general that porn should be kept at a distance from the fandom. You can't stop people from making it or enjoying it, but it should be compartmentalized at least. You can jerk off to any random animu girl, there are thousands on gelbooru and they all basically look the same; I think people should appreciate vocaloids for what makes them special, and not reduce them to a generic fap commodity.

Every fictional character has porn. Every one.

Why should the Vocaloids be any different?

>>16694710
>and not reduce them to a generic fap commodity
It's not about reduce, but about to expand the horizon of vocaloid.
Also, lewd fan art is different from porn; actually it goes very well with lewd songs.

>>16694681
>Sure, I don't like it and I know Sega goes too far because they're Sega. They can't even make Sonic fans happy anymore.
Don't try to sidestep the issue here, pal, stay on point.
I want you to denounce CFM, Piapro, and Sega for being "disrespectful", and "massively insulting to the fanbase, the characters, and Crypton Future Media themselves"

>>16694734
Isn't it technically copyright infringement in every case?

>>16694500
>>16694518
>>16694634
Why is CFM crabby about someone making ad money on youtube videos. Why do they need to make it a painful process to get such authorization from them.

>>16694753
Short answer: no. Depends on the situation and the country.

So long as you're not making money off of it, you're usually cool in the US under parody and fair use laws.

For the Japs the law tends to be even looser - look at the doujin market, or comiket. So long as you give credit where credit is due you seem to be a-okay.

>>16694681
>they're saying they don't want to be known for lewd.
>Obviously that extends to the characters they own.
So what you're telling me is that Crypton doesn't want their characters to be known for their lewd/sexual/overly violent art. That's not the same as Crypton condemning every single use of their characters in such a way; which is what it seemed like you were arguing for.

Anybody else plugging away at the new DLC? Loving every song in this pack

>>16694751
Well Sega for sure because of a few songs they added to the games and adding several different panties for panty and upskirt fetishists. Though, it can be argued that they characters are singing songs that don't have anything to do with them (such as a storyteller not being a part of with the stories they tell), it's still a poor move on Sega's part. The problem here is how so many people try to say the characters absolutely must be the character they are singing about. Separate the song from the person signing it, and I thing you'll see it as Sega does.

>>16694765
I'm pretty sure parody laws are ineffective when it's something that is already pre-determined to be financially damaging to the copyright holder.

>>16694803
The characters are cute things that sing songs. Just look at all the official concerts and exhibitions. It's very clear how they designed things.

>>16694832
Stop trying to single out Sega like that's going to get you out of this hole you've dug yourself into. Project Diva was developed in part by CFM. They officially licensed it. By including themes relating to sex and violence, they've violated their own guidelines. You have to condemn them for disrespecting vocaloid and insulting the community.
>The problem here is how so many people try to day the characters absolutely must be the character they are singing about.
That's not the problem here. No one on this chain is discussing that at all. You're the first one to suggest that's the case. In fact, every time that subject gets brought up, the overwhelming consensus is the exact opposite of that. You just keep trying to get off point because you can't properly defend your position.

Anyone here like any of the more metal-esque sounding vocaloid artists (utsu-p, okame-p, yuyoyuppe)? I've liked them for a while but haven't been able to find any HQ downloads or anything if they even exist. Does anyone happen to know where any of those would be or have any tips to help me find them? Google hasn't been a huge help and the results are spotty at best.

Sasara is sad because you guys forgot about her day.

>>16694874
Separate the song from the person signing it. If you can do that, you found the loophole they use. As lewd as the songs they sing can sometimes be (which is only a very small number of songs out of the whole game, by the way), that doesn't mean that's what they are.

I'll repeat it: Someone can sing a song, but that doesn't mean they are what they sing. You can sing it, but that doesn't mean you are what you're signing about.


If you call someone a jerk, does that make you a jerk? Of course not.

>mikufags

>>16694898
Then by your logic, the gang rape doujin I just jacked off to is within Piapro's guidelines as long I pretend it wasn't actually Miku getting pounded, it was just a performance art piece. She performed it, but it doesn't mean it was about her, so it doesn't defame her image.
And just go ahead and ignore the violence part because I know you wouldn't be able to figure out a way to justify that one.

Sasara is drinking to forget that you guys forgot about the Satou Day!

We have this same exact argument about 3 times a month, and it's always the same autists posting about it.

Enjoy Miku the way you'd like to enjoy Miku. There's no way anyone can stop you regardless.

>>16695104
But I feel the need to constantly try to force other people to conform to my narrow worldview in a desperate attempt to feel some kind of sense of control or superiority because I have neither in my real life.

>>16695072
It's very simple. If it's lewd it's not canon and disrespectful to the character. Where Sega went wrong is introducing those elements.

Are you Hungarian, by any chance?

Paranoia is a beast as unkind as ever, I see.

>>16695451
That happens when you learn someone isn't as good as you thought they were.

>>16694500
>>16694681
>>16695270
It's not Sega, Crypton itself endorses and plays sexual songs all the times in their concerts and games. Romeo and Cinderella, Sweet Devil, Seisou Bakuretsu Boy, Gigantic OTN have all been either in games or concerts at this point.

This whole argument is so fucking ridiculous. Miku is a fictional character, she can't even feel either way about being represented lewdly like a real life person can. There's nothing there to disrespect and getting this mad at people enjoying things in different ways than you do is borderline autistic.

>>16695470
The respect isn't there for the character to feel. It's part of what Crypton's Vocaloid fanbase is. Sorry you can't understand common decency.

>>16695470
>Miku is a fictional character
M8

>>16695478
>It's part of what Crypton's Vocaloid fanbase is
Crypton's Vocaloid fanbase... Or just you?

>>16695470
You're wasting your breath, but you probably know this aleady.

The thread is past bump limit anyway.

>>16695510
Yup, that's the only reason I'm still on this subject. Hopefully the next thread will be free of this bullshit.

>>16695501
Crypton says so, and I agree with them. If it were different I wouldn't have liked Vocaloids from the beginning. Why do some people want to fight against one of the the core appealing aspects of Crypton's Vocaloids?

>>16695536
One of the "core appealing aspects of Crypton's Vocaloids" is that they don't have canon personalities, so people can feel free to represent them however they want, even sexually, and no representation is more "right" than the next one.

>Crypton says so
Then how do you explain this bit you completely ignore whenever people present to you:
>It's not Sega, Crypton itself endorses and plays sexual songs all the times in their concerts and games. Romeo and Cinderella, Sweet Devil, Seisou Bakuretsu Boy, Gigantic OTN have all been either in games or concerts at this point.

>>16695555
Nice job repeatedly ignoring facts over and over again. It's not like you were told before, right? How about I recall the things that prove my point?

- Someone can sing a song, but that doesn't mean they are what they sing. You can sing it, but that doesn't mean you are what you're signing about.

- "When you copy or modify the Characters, please do not distort, mutilate, modify or take other derogatory action in relation to the Characters that would be prejudicial to Crypton's honor or reputation (please see Section 4e. of the full license). Some examples of prohibited uses include use in an overly violent context or in a sexual context." - http://piapro.net/intl/en_for_creators.html (Q11)

You take an inherently cute characters that similar to the image I posted, and have voices like these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mqps4anhz0Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0TtDeDiHcE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMDxKRx10mU and then you claim walking in and forcing overly sexual things on them isn't insulting to the people who enjoy it. You are the very definition of a bad person if you try to defend that. The respect is for the people who like it for what it is. Innocent singing characters.

Guys I like Miku but I don't get upset over people posting r-18 of her on the internet. Does that make me a bad person?

>>16695708
Same here, I like Miku as nothing else I liked before and I'm very happy with it but I still know she is a fictional character and thus I draw a line over how emotional this thing can get out of me.

Doing the way of the autistic anon is bound to make you fall into a spiral of chronic depression sooner or later.

Just enjoy Miku and company without getting overly emotional about silly things.

>>16695593
You need therapy. Seriously.
